Notes

Yield: Makes about 8 cups of chili.
Instructions to make in the Instant Pot: Saute the ground beef in the Instant Pot, instead of on a frying pan. Add the onion, celery and bell pepper for a few minutes. Add chili spices and the water and let cook. Then after 3-4 minutes, hit cancel on the Instant Pot. Add all other ingredients and spices. Give everything a stir. Then secure lid and select "Bean / Chili". Be careful removing lid when time is up!
